Is the part that holds the hose removable for easy winter storage?

Yes it is. No tools required, just lift the hose reel up and it will separate at the pivot point. The mounting bracket will remain bolted in place. Very quick and easy.

if u disconnect both hoses: just turn the reel over once and the rest of the water runs out

It has a self contained, removable water container as well as a hose attachment so that you do not have to use the water container.

yes it does.....still get very decent water pressure and fits all standards hose attachments.....much lighter weight and so far been very pleased....stayed outside in MO last winter and we had coldest/longest winter in over 25 years....unhooked of course from faucet but held up fine not even put away. It does still tangle some....but much easier to heft around when watering and doesn't damage other things if it rolls over them like precious little plants because of it's light weight. I would definitely recommend and I might even buy one this year for in back of my house.

No it can not be. The other side is for the hose attachment and thereis a different bracket for it. I have had this for 2 or 3 years and the plasticreel that holds the hose has deteriorated and broken from the stress ofwinding the hose on it. I gave this a two star rating a couple of years ago.I would now give it a one star. I did attach a piece of metal channel to itso I can roll it up without it slipping all over the place but now with the reelbreaking it is definitely not worth the price.

Very easy.....turn off your water supply, disconnect the hose and pull the "pin" that it swivels on. You may need to rock the unit a bit to pull the pin/pipe out. The hose and reel should be stored inside.

Yes it is. There are 4 screws that mount it to the house or what ever mount you have. The reel is designed to just loosen the 4 mounting screws about a turn or two, lift up and pull out and the hose reel comes off.

I have found the attachment to be very secure. I prefer to leave the bonnet attached to the hose, and I can still close the case.

The hose is simply pressed in and fits snug enough to hold it securely. If your hose is old or cracked it may not hold anymore. A new hose can be bought at almost any hardware store.

No, not the canister body but does clip onto the hose. Personally, I don't bother with it, I just leave the extra tools together on a shelf in the closet.

Yes it is removable however I put another pad (heat pad for winter) over it so it has not been an issue. Putting a soft washable pad down is probably the best solution.

Yes, it can be removed easily. I remove it after every use for easier storage.

Yes. When sweater season is done I take them apart. The connector pieces, I put in a gallon storage bag along with the mesh and the long pole pieces I bundle together with a rubber band and tuck it all away in the closet until fall hits. I just put mine back together today :)

I can't answer this from experience since I have not owned the unit through a heating season. Technically, the manufacturer recommends disconnecting the intake hose from outdoors during the winter and using inside air as the intake during cold weather. I am hoping that does not become necessary, but it may.

Yes. I have it hooked up under foam tube insulation. Keeps my water hose from freezing in the winter. Doesn't really get hot, just slightly above freezing.

yes..very easy..i just take it outside and hose it off..its flexible and easy to carry.

it's cold here, so I don't have them in use. I believe it has a locking mechanism, but I was not overly impressed with the water sprayed. I had several inexpensive ones from lowes that were better performers.

Yep, it pulls off the end of the hose especially when your kids are helping you pump it up. But it is solidly attached it doesn't come off while in use unless you want it to.
